PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

I have a Remington 870 Super-Mag, and will be using Federal 3 1/2" premium mag-shok #5 Heavyweight shells. I have been looking for a compatible choke, thats not gonna kill me in wallet department. I have seen Primos tightwad chokes for sale a lot of places, but havnt been able to find any reviews on them, any comments?

ALSO>> Anyone know where you can buy these shells (other than Gander Mountain) for less than $25.00 for a box of ten?
THANKS!!

i dont know about that one but the primos jellyhead is a good choke with hv shot

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

Your not going to find a box of heavy weights for much less than that. I know I've been trying.

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

I'm not trying to be a smart-butt here, but it seems your really going about this thing a little backwards. Pick a choke and then pattern different shells till you find one that works best. Otherwise you're going to be spending a ton of money on chokes until you find one that works.

I do use the Jellyhead in my 870 and with Nitros and the new Win. Extendeds it is downright nasty out to 45+.

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

The reason that I'm doing it this way is because I have done a bunch of research on the balistics data, material that the shot is made, powder types, barrell speeds, and down field energy, and really liked the data I found n this particular shell. I have previousley used lead shot, but about an hour after I bought these shells, I remembered......... Current choke is for LEAD ONLY. Sucks to be me, but now after research on shells, I am in need of a choke. Might be the more expensive way to go, but the way that I'm stuck with now, bought a lot of shells.

Guess that makes sense....I hope you find a good one on your first try!

Good luck.:)

You can't shoot the new Federal Heavyweights through a lead only choke? I heard it was soft enough and was comprised of several different metals. Maybe not I guess.

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

The only thing you can shoot through a lead choke is lead, EVERYTHING else is to hard, whether it's steel, or some tungsten matrix blend, there is absolutley NO heavyshot that can be sot through a LEAD ONLY choke.

The are comprised of two differant metals though, Federal uses a Tungston-iron blend

u can get the jellyhead for under 40 bucks

You can buy an Undertaker Choke for under $20.00 at bass pro shops..

ME TOO!! Otherwise this could get pretty expensive, pretty quick!!

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

I've got a Jellyhead tube you can try if you like. I bought it last year for my 870 but my kicks tubes threw a better pattern that what the Hevi-shot did. I'd could send it to you to try and if you like it, you can make me an offer as to what you think it's worth to you.

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

I have a JellyHead that I took out and patterned twice out of my 870 and I didn't like the patterns. I ended up buying a Rhino choke and Nitro ammo. I won't be needing the JellyHead. If you are intrested in it shoot me a pm.

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

I have an 870 super mag and I have found that #4s flies best out of my jellyhead choke than the Undertaker and factory extra full Rem choke. I really like the jellyhead. Goodluck to you this season!!!

RE: PRIMOS TURKEY CHOKES
 

Thanks for the offers!! I purchased the 'tight wad' and the patterns are awesome!! 50 yards, and 'kill zone' yielded 20 - 25 bb's on all 5 shots! Thats impressive enough for me, guess even after going about the whole thing backwards, it ended up ok. Thanks again for all the help and the offers!

i have the jelly head for my moss 835 ulti-mag and i shot it last week with new federal hvywts, and rem hevi shot. all were #5 shot and 3 and 3-1/2" mags.

It completely destroyed the turkeyhead and neck on target at 30 with all three loads. At 40 yds, between 28-45 in vital areas with all three. I'm good to go..

New fed heavyweights kicked like a mule compared to the rem hevi-shot in 3-1/2".
